Usherette of the Day

The divine David Usher (only 6 more days until Strange Birds is released, at which point there will be a decrease in the frequency of the Usherisms) has recorded a haunting version of John Lennon's "Watching The Wheels" for Amnesty International. So today, the lyrical genius of Lennon is celebrated through the soulful voice of a modern rock star of poetic vision. And how fabulous that it all applies to me:

People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin
When I say that I'm o.k. well they look at me kind of strange
Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game

People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me
When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall
Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball...
